Conversations in the Car<\/b>:
\nSeasons in the Sun<\/i> comes on the radio just as we’re picking up Frida, Martin’s classmate.
\nLiz<\/b>: Happy Monday, Frida!
\nFrida<\/b>: Unnnh
\nLiz<\/b>: *laughs*<\/i> I feel the same way but at least we have good<\/i> music to make up for it! *giggles madly and turns up the volume*<\/i>
\nMartin<\/b>: You crack yourself up, don’t you?
\nLiz<\/b>: *still laughing*<\/i> Yep! If I relied on everyone else to supply humor I would be a sad, sad puppy.<\/p>\n

Why didn’t I go walking today? What is stopping me? Fatigue, grumps, The Busy. Whatever, my excuses are wearing thin. Even if they’re not conscious, and of course, they rarely are.<\/p>\n

The rose of sharon<\/a> bushes are flowering right now. I’ve seen several huge bushes of them around town. They’re startling and magnificent and I want one. Someone told me that they’re “junk” bushes, but I might have to get one anyway. In purple.<\/p>\n

All the summer greenery is getting that chewed raggedy-edged autumn look. Plants and grasses are tipped with red and ochre and there’s a chill in the air. It’s not cold enough to freeze, but it feels close…the car windows have been blurred with water every morning; I suspect it won’t be long until I’m scraping that stuff off.<\/p>\n

Remember that big pink alien-looking flowering plant that I posted a picture of earlier this month? Apparently I over-watered it and today I noticed the flower was looking rather gray. When I inspected it further, it just …pulled right out of the center of the plant. Oops. I wonder if I don’t water it at all for a couple of weeks if it will be okay or if my black thumb has killed yet another growing thing. *sigh* This is why I only have succulents and philodendrons.<\/p>\n

Work is getting busier by the minute. This is the first week that EVERYONE is back from vacation and the amount of work has tripled accordingly. It’s LOOMING. I don’t know how we’ll keep up with it, and it’s making me feel panicky. I’ve already talked to my boss about extra resources of some kind. I worked an hour late today and I SWORE I wouldn’t do that anymore. ARGH.<\/p>\n
